Why not just get a cheap commuter car with great gas mileage? Who likes getting 15 mph all the time? I only say that cause it looks like you already have an XJ....

That's an excellent deal if it just needs a tune up. I would buy it.

Does the tap go away if you are on the gas and moving? Might be a cracked flexplate.
